People voted for Romney out of fear. Period. Most of them now regret it.

Palin supported him much less than reluctantly. She was treated like a dog by every level of the GOP and their hardcore romneybot fanbase. Even considering the absolute minimum of backhanded support she gave, I have to think she regrets it too. She sure ain’t screaming it from the rooftops...now or then.

My history is one I stand behind. And as I read here daily, I see more and more people understanding that their mistaken support of the liberal helped move the GOP leftward at a lightning pace. Of course, there are still a few who try to claim that didn’t happen. However the Amnesty bill gives lie to that. Among MANY other things.

Here’s the thing. Do you plan on voting for the next open lib the GOP puts up? Because if you do, then why even claim conservatism? I can understand voting out of fear. Once. I also understand that the results are NEVER good. As we see.

But to make the same mistake again? Really?

Then people would deserve every bit of the hell they bring on themselves. Because now they should know better. And people making excuses for it should be ashamed of themselves.

I voted for Romney because his was the only name on the ballot that had a prayer in defeating Nobama. The primary system in this country is more of a joke than voting in Russia. By the time we get to vote in Texas all the better candidates are GOP’ed out by the purple states who get to vote first. It is a broken system and until rectified we will always get a loser on the ticket.

Interesting prospective there Norm. I sure didn't mean to move the GOP leftward by voting for Romney, and my excuse for the previous POTUS vote was named Sarah.
I think both times there was a protest lever named Ron Paul that wouldn't have made any difference, and I can honestly say a protest vote for Obama, hoping to move the country/GOP rightward had never occurred to me.

This amnesty business and all the rest going on with the leftist-light republicans combined with the talking heads instant reaction of NO THIRD PARTY seems as overplayed as complaints that nothing can be done to fix the broken primary system. My theory is nothing can be done that would take any power from the GOPe.

The two party system in this country is simply broken. It's even worse than I thought if I have to feel guilty now that the losers have taken all the wrong steps to correct themselves.
